JUNE 16-19
The severe impacts of recent natural hazards, including hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and landslides, combined with the vulnerability of human settlements and infrastructures, have highlighted the significant work still needed to address these challenges. This conference aims to raise awareness about this critical topic and propose strategies to promote new approaches at the intersection of structure/infrastructure systems and the economic and social impacts of natural hazard to increase community resilience. The growing need to address complex challenges in urban resilience, engineering, and monitoring, within a multi-risk context and an increasingly interconnected world, demands the development of innovative ideas and advanced methods to deliver accurate numerical solutions within feasible computing times, as well as the creation of novel methods and tools to support risk-informed decisions. ICONREM will provide a dynamic platform for sharing scientific knowledge and expertise with colleagues from around the globe, fostering collaboration across these critical fields. The conference sessions welcome scientific contributions about single and multi-risk analysis, monitoring and resilience. Novel approaches to modelling, mapping or analysing data on all sub-components of the risks are invited. The 4th edition of the Conference will take place in Florence. The technical sessions will be hosted at the headquarters of the Department of Architecture (DIDA), while the opening and closing ceremonies will be held in an exceptional location: Palazzo Vecchio, the heart of the Renaissance.

The devastating effects of recent natural hazards and disastersāsuch as hurricanes, earthquakes, and tsunamisācombined with the fragile state of infrastructure systems worldwide, underscore the ongoing need for innovation and action. Recognizing these challenges, the International Conference on Resilient Engineering and Monitoring (ICONREM) was successfully held last year, bringing together global experts to address critical issues in resilience, earthquake engineering, and structural health monitoring. ICONREM served as a platform to elevate awareness and propose innovative strategies for enhancing the resilience of critical infrastructure systems while addressing their economic and social impacts. The conference highlighted the increasing necessity of solving complex problems through the development of new ideas and advanced methods, ensuring accurate solutions within efficient timeframes. The conference sessions took place at the Politecnico di Torino in Turin, a renowned hub for academic and technological excellence. The final day was held at the European Commission's Joint Research Centre in Ispra, a significant European research facility situated on the scenic shores of Lake Maggiore, approximately 130 km from Turin. These venues provided a stimulating environment for meaningful discussions and collaboration. Participants also had the opportunity to explore Turin and the Piedmont region, celebrated for its cultural heritage, exquisite cuisine, and breathtaking landscapes, making the conference a memorable experience.
